IP Foundation for Broadcast Engineers (CCIPFM)

Duration : 5 Days (40 Hours)

IP Foundation for Broadcast Engineers (CCIPFM) Course Overview:

What you’ll learn in this course
The CCIPFM v2.0 course, also known as “IP Foundation for Broadcast Engineers,” offers a comprehensive introduction to Internet Protocol (IP) networking and the Cisco® IP Fabric for Media (IPFM) solution. This training program equips participants with the knowledge and skills needed to migrate from Serial Digital Interface (SDI)-based deployments to IP-based infrastructures in the broadcast industry.

The course covers the fundamental principles of IP technologies, including Ethernet functions and standards, the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) stack, and the deployment of Cisco IPFM. Through interactive lessons and hands-on labs, participants will have the opportunity to explore the Cisco Data Center Network Manager (DCNM) Media Controller. You will learn to deploy and troubleshoot the DCNM Media Controller, enabling you to effectively manage and automate flows through the IP fabric. Additionally, you will gain hands-on experience in configuring basic IP functionality.

By the end of the course, you will have a solid understanding of IP networking and the Cisco IPFM solution, empowering you to work confidently with IP-based infrastructures in broadcast engineering environments. Embrace the future of broadcasting and acquire the necessary skills to excel in IP-centric workflows.

Enroll in the CCIPFM v2.0 course and unlock the potential of IP networking in the broadcast industry. Master the Cisco IP Fabric for Media solution, and position yourself at the forefront of IP-based infrastructure deployments for seamless and efficient broadcasting operations.
